Build Your Own House - How to Build a House and Save Money - Be Your Own General Contractor.

"Build my own home? Build my own house? You must be dreaming!" Well, I had the same questions and doubts many years ago.

But you can build your own home! Thousands do it every year and save enough money building their own home, renovating their home, or building a home addition, to make their dreams come true.

Most knew little or nothing about home building, yet they saved 25% or more. They did so by being the General Contractor (owner builder), determining building costs and hiring professional contractors or subcontractors to do the actual work.

You can be your own General Contractor for any type of construction on your property. Whether you are building a house, a room addition, a home addition, a garage, etc., you don’t need to be a licensed builder!

Building a new home is not as complicated as most people think. There are many fine people who will help you in all the phases of being your own general contractor. I am one of them. Carl Heldmann

Note: Even if you decide to hire a professional home builder or remodeling contractor, or just want to buy a new home instead of building your own house, the knowledge of how to build a house should prove to be very useful.
